ACVA Ethics and Standards Guidelines


Section D: Teaching, Training, and Supervision

D.1. ASTROLOGICAL EDUCATORS AND TRAINERS
a. Educators as Teachers and Practitioners: Astrologers who are responsible for developing, implementing, and supervising educational programs are skilled as teachers and practitioners. Astrologers conduct education and training programs in an ethical manner and serve as role models for professional behavior.

b. Endorsement: Astrologers do not endorse students or supervisees for certification or completion of an academic or training program if they believe students or supervisees are not qualified for the endorsement. Astrologers take reasonable steps to assist students or supervisees who are not yet qualified for endorsement to become qualified.

D.2. ASTROLOGICAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING PROGRAMS
a. Orientation: Prior to admission, astrologers orient prospective students to the astrological education or training program's expectations, including but not limited to the following: (1) the type and level of skill acquisition required for successful completion of the training, (2) subject matter to be covered, (3) basis for evaluation, (4) training components that encourage self-growth or self-disclosure as part of the training process, and (5) employment and career prospects for graduates.

b. Teaching Ethics: Astrologers make students and supervisees aware of the ethical responsibilities and standards of the profession.
